What's the question being asked here?
To figure this out, we need to use fractional proportions.
Currently, we have $120, the amount earned, and 2 days, the current rate.
Our fraction for this is: 120 / 2 = x / 6, x being the amount earned in 6 days.
Let's use a little technique to help us answer faster.
With our current money earned, 120, and our current days, 2, we can divide 120 by 2 to find out how many we earned in 1 day.
120 / 2 = 60.
We earned $60 per day.
With this formula, 60d, d being the amount of days, we can solve quicker.
We are solving for 6 days, so multiply $60 by 6 days.
60 x 6 = 360
Your proportion is :
120/2 : 360/6
I hope this helps!
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
168 factors into
2•2•2•3•7
two of the 2's make a perfect square
(2•2)•2•3•7
2²•2•3•7
as none of the product of the remaining factors makes a perfect square
2•3 = 6, 2•7 = 14, 3•7 = 21
we need to multiply the remaining factors together to find another perfect square
2²•(2•3•7)²
2•3•7 = 42
42(168) = 7056 = 84²
